Abstract

The titanium-stabilized lithium carbanion 1 represents a new class of organodimetallic compounds that are easily accessible by a dilithiation–transmetalation sequence [Eq. (1)]. The X-ray structure of 1 revealed an aggregate consisting of two titanated lithium phosphonate units and two molecules of LiCl as the aggregation nucleus. Density functional calculations on a model system showed excellent agreement with the solid-state structure and suggest a configurational stability comparable to those of lithium phosphonates.
